Reel Specifications
Bridge City, 107 Bay Head, Bayhead (see the 85 Seaboy for parts)
Penn Bridge City Reel
Found online on a forum post:
"The Bridge City was made from 1934 to 1940. They came in 100, 200, 250, and 300 yard models. For an older Penn reel I feel they are not that hard to find in the 200, 250 & 300 yard reels. Any 100 yard reels are harder to find.

Penn Bay Head Reel
Cross Compatibility Info
You can use the internals/spool/stand from the 85 Seaboy to repair the Bridge City and Bay Head reels. You probably could use the side plates as well, but those identify which model the reel is so it's not recommended to change them. ~MizMo

"Penn Low End Reels Rule Of Thumb::
1----A Bay Head is a Low priced Bridge City
2---A Bridge City is an early version of the Penn 85 Sea Boy.
Parts between those three reels should be interchangeable. "
